So far I have found several very interesting resources. My most informative is an online article about whether or not religion is beneficial to ones health. It is a two part article, one stating how it can be very helpful for your wellbeing. The other half describes how the stress of religion can cause more problems than it fixes them. The article is written by Clay Routledge, Ph. D. called "Is Religion Bad for Your Health?" very clever however it states some interesting findings in recent studies.
My topic has changed a little. I am going to elaborate on the findings of religion being bad for your health. Not because Im not religious, but because this is a topic i have never really stumbled upon in my life, living in the Bible belt of the US.
I feel like I am going to have a difficult time finding more topics that support the negative of religion, however I am not bias to either side. I am still interested in what has been found about the positive affects of religion.
Good! Considering our purpose for the annotated bib is to see what's being said about a topic, it will be beneficial to find sources that disagree with each other, sources that explicate the positive affects of being religious. Finding multiple viewpoints will be particularly helpful with our 3-sided essay - coming soon!
